well, if they are indeed using similar amounts of cpu (my idle XFCE shows in top at a steady 0.3%, I have a hard time believing KDE can do that), then someone did indeed tweak KDE. When I last used it, KDE3 was freshly out and I hated the UI, so I stopped using it - only to realise that I had been missing out on a lightning fast Window Manager.
However, that extra functionality may or may not be useful to people.
The only thing that would make me consider switching would be if a window manager offered to organise multiple desktops on the inner(!) surface of a cube and I could swap environments having a concept of up, down, left, right, front, back.
